Due to the environmental damage of cars using fossil fuels, electric cars have started to be focused on today. Bill Gates , who started to deal with charity and climate issues after he left his position at Microsoft , was one of the names interested in electric cars and announced the first electric car model he received.
Bill Gates, one of the names sensitive to global warming, states that fossil fuel consumption should be stopped in many platforms he attends. Explaining that electric cars have a great importance in environmental pollution and climate change, Gates announced that Tesla is the most remarkable company in this field. But Gates, who bought his first electric car, preferred his choice not to Tesla, but to Porsche 's electric model Taycan .
Despite supporting Tesla, Gates, who preferred his choice for Porsche Taycan, explained that this was because he found the car cool and said that he enjoyed driving the car very much. The range of the car, which can accelerate to 0-100 km in 2.6 seconds , varies between 388 km and 449 km . Although electric cars are troubling for many people in terms of their prices, Gates says the biggest challenge is the distance the vehicle can go on a single charge.
Porsche Taycan , the choice of Bill Gates , is a four-door model, although it has sports car features. The model, which took its name from the combination of the words "thai" and "can" in Turkish, was launched last year.
